Description

When you’ve lasted more than ten years in this town it’s pretty clear you’re doing something right. Having outlasted clubs, restaurants and even a few property names (we’re looking at you, Quad), Tao is now a Vegas mainstay and one of the spots you shouldn’t miss if you’re planning a tour of the Las Vegas club scene.

While eating at Tao Restaurant, you can say that you’re there for the food, the ambiance or because the giant Buddha inspires you to both eat more and somehow still learn the value of sacrifice. But when you enter Tao Nightclub, your reasons for hitting the town blend more into the light and the leather.

Visually, the nightclub space is some sort of take on Buddhism mixed with ancient styling mixed with a modern club mixed with girls in bathtubs full of flower petals. The reddish hue that fills the main room isn’t entirely unique in the club world, but the lights work with the décor and the assuredness in the construction to make the space feel like a longstanding temple to a faith that practically deifies girls in bathtubs full of flower petals. We won’t put the club on the spot and say the girls will absolutely always be there, but when it comes to girls in bathtubs full of rose petals, it’s better to err on the side of hope. That’s a Buddhist thing, right?

The dancing space is divided into two areas: The actual dance floor full of bumping music, sweating bodies and all the lights and shapes they can throw around; and the lounge space full of seating that’s just the right mix of intimate and open. You can certainly dance in the wide space between the booths on one side and the booths on the other, and you probably won’t be alone; but there’s a reason the actual floor gets the lights. The lounge has a bar. The dance floor has the DJ booth. And the two spots connect to each other through the main walkways or through a quick hop over the backs of the booths which you should definitely not do. You will get in trouble--even if you tell them you work for Vegas.com and you were just testing the temperature of the rose petals in the bath tubs.

If you’re tired of dancing or getting creeped out by all the Buddha statues staring at you, and you can’t score a table on the second floor overlooking the main room, the Opium Room might be the spot for you. No there’s no real opium. And we've been instructed not to put a winky face after that statement. The Opium Room is just a clever name for a chill lounge with its own bar, its own DJ booth and a style that’s more like the inside of a beautiful bamboo jewelry box instead of the shiny pink jewelry that is the main room.

As a nightlife venue, Tao has become synonymous with Las Vegas glamour and quasi-Eastern-religion themed nightlife experiences the world over. Everyday club goers who stroll in through the Grand Canal Shoppes find a new world of warm, wooden comfort on the ground and bright, Vegas glitterati in the air. The club has brought in names like Diddy, Snoop Dogg (it was Dogg at the time, probably) and Krewella. And combined with the restaurant and Tao Beach, the Tao experience becomes something so much more than the sum of its parts. (Is that a Buddhist saying? Well it is now.) And did we mention girls in bathtubs full of rose petals?

Rated 5 out of 5 by jjcorona Great atmosphere!
My friend and I came from California to spend our last weekend of Spring break here. We got tickets on line and received wristbands. We did not know the wristbands were offering us free drinks for an hour and a half. Totally caught us off guard. Overall we loved the music playing, and the crowd. Everyone seemed to be having a great time and we surely would come back again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Pita22 Best Club in Vegas
Tao is the best night club in Vegas, there's a reason why Vice is one of the best DJs in the world, his mix of music is by far one of the best !!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by KyleL22 Enjoyed my weekend at Tao
I have purchased the Tao weekend pass from Vegas.com before and never been disappointed. Picking up the braclet at the kiosk desk is always quick and easy. The weather was cold which keep the LA crowd from coming in, so the clubs weren't as busy as usual. I was inside in a matter of seconds, no further cover was required. Music was good, not too loud, and the club was clean and everyone was dressed nice. VIP tables for a larger group would definitely be worth the money. I had some of the Bud Light 16 oz aluminum bottles or $9, whicih isn't too bad in the night club world. Definitely recommend Tao and will be back in te near future!!

Rated 4 out of 5 by JROCK5 Fun for an hour or two
The kiosk for the TAO/LAVO was ridiculous. Their hours were obviously random, posted 6pm to 12am on vegas.com receipt. No one was there at 11pm. We went up to TAO with my receipt, they said the kiosk hours were 10am to 10pm. They let us in with our vegas.com receipt. I came back next day to kiosk at 1pm.....closed. I finally said forget it and went to LAVO (worse music than TAO) on Sunday night with my vegas.com receipt and they let us right in.....no line. The prepaid VIP acces is great, just carry your receipt with you since the kiosk obviously is open on a random schedule.
Wife and I went dancing there (TAO) for about an hour. We had a good time. Unfortunately the music in clubs is mostly the same song after song, if you can call them that. I don't mind some gangster rap (or whatever you call it) for a few songs. After 20 of them tho, its time to go. I wish there was a club that played house, remix alternative, rap, hip hop etc. I'm obviously no expert. However, the music that was being played downstairs in the bar of the Tao restaurant was much better!!!!!

Rated 1 out of 5 by NCNYgirl Horrible Experience
We purchased our tickets ahead of time for no reason. We were given the runaround about where we go. We were not suppose to stand in line because we had VIP tickets but we did anyways because half the staff didnt know where we were suppose to go. When we get to the front of line, they apologize (after a 2 hour wait in line). We get our hands stamped showing Tao I'd and a VIP wristband. Later that night, we go outside the club to talk to our friends who could not get in. When we proceed to go back into the club, we were denied access. Apparantely, the VIP bands and hand stamp were not good enough, we needed to either pay to get back in or not go in. Then, they wouldnt let us go back in to get our purses so that we could leave. We had to wait until our other friends who were still inside came out. Overall, nice setup on the roof, everything else was horrible. Drinks were not strong either.
